    What a wonderful, positive attitude you seem to have in so many of your posts!

    You probably mean 1mn20 which is how long it took me. Probably a lot less time than it took the OP to post the comp with all the answers.

    I am sorry to bump, but just felt a need to reply to this comment.

    Most compers do not comp purely for financial gain. It is a way of relaxing, a bit of fun and you can meet some really nice people through it. I personally comp in the evenings because I do a high pressure job with poor health and this really helps me unwind and rest. I also find the kindness and generoisty of spirit on the comping board can really lift my spirits.

    It took the poster far more than 12 mins, but I am very grateful for their time so unselfishly given. If you want to find utopia look to the goodness in others not to more possessions.

    utopiandream - i used to do these myself & believe me some of them are not easy, if you lose your lives you have to wait to start all over again,
    it takes a hell of a lot longer finding/solving the answers & then posting them up for everyone on here, at one time i got fed taking ages to find the answers then discovered tmen posted them on here for us, i for one am extremely grateful to tmen for taking the time to do them all selflessly every week & hope your negative attitude doesn't stop them from doing so.
    If it takes you to long please don't do them, more chance for us who want to win then :)
    please be a responsible pet owner & spay/neuter your pets, too many strays & not enough homes for them sadly. k2u58ioz4c8e.png

    How on earth does it take 12 mins to enter this 2-3 mins max !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    I'm very grateful to everyone who posts these comps, they deserve a lot more thanks as they take ages to find answers.

    Sorry to bump but just wanted to say that I appreciate the effort that all the posters make, especially on the more difficult comps/quizzes. So thanks a lot to tmen for this post. I always find a possitive attitude to life more interesting than a cynical one:)
